Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.81 (beta)
X-bEnCH is a graphical user-interface with up to 128 colours which replaces the Workbench for starting WHDLoad-games (.slave, .exe) and and uses low computer resources. According to the developer the programm works on all Amigas (OCS to AGA) with 68000 to 68060 processors and uses little virtual memory.

Changes in this release:
  • Fixed the fade to black issue on init. (Should work now with highgfx mode)
  • Fixed the refresh timing speed with fast cpu.
  • Fixed the display redraw bug in the Prefs when switching tabs.
  • Added the "Main Menu" prefs tab.
  • Added an on/off switch for the main menu music.
  • Added an on/off switch for the main menu starfield. (usefull if your migy is a bit too slow.)

AmigaOS 4: Dragon-/Tandy-Emulator XRoar 0.29.1
XRoar ported by Ventzislav Tzvetkov emulates the 8-Bit-systems Dragon and Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer. A minimal firmware is included in the archive but for real compatibility a ROM-image of the emulated computers is required.

  • New PIA & keyboard code supports matrix ghosting
  • Fixed emulation of Dragon 32 with 64K
  • Underlying video module rewrite
  • VDG sub-scanline mode switching more accurate (CSS & !INT/EXT delayed)
  • Use vertex and texture coord arrays in OpenGL code
  • Alias '²' to Clear for French keyboards. TODO: generic key bind ability
  • Fake ACIA responses to fix 32K mode autorepeat. TODO: real ACIA support
  • Curses video module removed - incompatible with new VDG/video code
  • SDL YUV video module tries harder to find accelerated overlay
  • "Becker" port supported in RS-DOS
  • Various CPU timing fixes
  • Hitachi 6309 support (unverified) with "-machine-cpu 6309"
